But now I am wondering if that is something I was supposed to disclose? When I bought the house it had this issue, and I just never really thought about it. I don't think I have enough time to get it fixed.
Sold my house and closing on Thursday. I am writing a document to help the buyers with some things. I was going to mention there is a wall switch in one room that doesn't control the ceiling fan and you need to use the remote …

Don’t open a can of worms. Close and move on.
The ceiling fan may not even have a wire to control it from the light switch. I feel like all the newer remotes now need to be controlled by a remote.
The best intention document can quickly run into things that can be used against you.
Dont write the document. I know exactly how youre feeling, i felt the same way when we sold. Its a sweet gesture. Our lawyer advised us against it as it just opens the floor for them to try to sue over whatever.
I flip houses, so a little different.
I always offer to do a walk-through with the buyer to explain whatever I know about the house. A lot of houses have little quirks that it’s helpful to explain.
Or I’ll leave a written explanation on the kitchen counter along with any other documentation(appliance warranties, etc).
